"He was dubbed ‘BTK,’ because he bound, tortured and killed his victims. He operated with impunity for thirty-one years - a serial killer police thought they might never find, might never stop. But when he was finally caught, this killer’s identity was a shocker: Dennis Rader, a mild-mannered father, husband and church president."Everyone wondered: how could this man commit such shocking crimes?
"In this feature-length NBC News documentary, originally seen as part of ‘Dateline NBC,’ the ‘BTK Killer’ speaks out in his own words about what drove him to kill. This exclusive interview was conducted by Harvard neuropsychologist Robert Mendoza, who was hired by Radar’s defense team to assess his sanity. In it, Rader chronicles the growing obsession inside him, his cat-and-mouse game with police and the media, and - finally - his willing confession.
"‘Confessions of the BTK Killer’ also includes never-heard-before details about these crimes, and is a unique, startling, and in-depth journey inside the darkness of a notorious criminal."
